Off-duty cop kills two in capital

An off-duty police officer fatally shot two people and wounded another in Phnom Penh yesterday, during an argument about the cost of street lamps, authorities and eyewitnesses said.

Chuk Lay, 62, chief of village 4 in Tuol Svay Prey I commune, along with his son Lay Bun Hoeun, 18, and nephew Bun Rithy, 30, were collecting money from villagers to install street lights along the local roads to cut down on crime.

Each household had to contribute $50 to cover the cost of a street light in front of their house, said Pov Pidor, the commune police chief.

When Lay got to the house of the suspects, Keo Sovanrith, a policeman with the Ministry of Interior, and his brother Keo Sovannara, the latter said he wouldn’t pay more than $25, leading to an argument. As it escalated, Sovanrith grabbed his AK rifle and opened fire on the trio.

Ministry Official Kills Village Chief

A seemingly minor dispute between an Interior Ministry official and a village chief in Phnom Penh turned deadly when the official gunned down the village chief and his relative on Wednesday afternoon, according to police, who offered wildly different reports of the shooting.

Tey Visal, deputy chief of the municipal police’s penal bureau, said that Chup Lay—the longtime chief of Village #4 in Chamkar Mon district’s Tuol Svay Prey I commune—was shot to death along with his adult son at about 3:30 p.m. following an argument over streetlight repairs with Keo Vannarith, 27, a second lieutenant in the Interior Ministry’s order department.


Mr. Visal said a third man was also injured in the shooting, but that he did not know the man’s identity.

“This case happened because the village chief went to collect money to repair streetlights and they had a fight with each other,” Mr. Visal said.

He said Mr. Vannarith and two others—whose names he claimed not to know—were arrested following the shooting, and that the Interior Ministry official had been sent to Calmette Hospital for treatment because “he was struck with swords many times.”

Police release one held over capital shooting

The Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday released a suspect being held over the shooting deaths of three people – one of them a village chief – during a fight in the capital’s Tuol Svay Prey I commune last week, a court official said yesterday.

Chamkarmon district police chief Yin San said yesterday that Keo Sovannara – the brother of police officer Keo Sovannarith, who is suspected of shooting village chief Chuk Lay, his son and his nephew – had been called to court for questioning yesterday while his brother is still in hospital. However, he said, he was unaware whether the court would move to charge him.

Prosecutor Meas Chanpiseth could not be reached yesterday, but a court official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that after the interrogation, Sovannara was freed by the court, which had determined that “he was not a suspect in the shooting on the day of the incident”.

According to Pov Pidor, police chief of Tuol Svay Prey I, Sovannarith and Lay, the village chief, had argued over a contribution for a public street lamp, at which point Lay called his son and nephew – Lay Bunthoeun and Bun Rithy, respectively – for help.
